Hey guys! This probably sounds weird, but does anyone else do this;

If I send to someone VV and don't get it before it closes or after a few weeks, I get nervous and think it got lost in the mail. Now, I just recently send VV and still haven't gotten it back so I'll have to see what happens.. but I always get nervous that it got lost or I didn't put enough postage, I don't send again, but like I said I still haven't gotten anything back, and it makes me feel nervous. Haha, I worry a lot. But does anyone else think this, or am I just nuts? : P

I think i get more disappointed because I sent the Cheetah girls VV in December... I've sort of given up hope, mostly because well.... i sent pictures and worked hard on it... but I think we all get a little disappointed in this hobby!

defenitly until i get my first succes from the sending period im always nervice, this is why i dont like to send so much and im also like you, i worry about to little postage or did it get lost in the mail why is everyone else getting a succes and not me, oh the list goes on and on, this hobby can be very frustrating but when you get a auto in the mail its very worhthwile. until my drought ends thou it will remain frustrating.

When I've wrote to anyone VV it has always been via a play/pantomime so that means they'd be at the same theatre for a month or so, so there is no way it doesn't get there in time but I still never hear back! I don't send VV very often, 3 times actually, and only got a success from one (Patrick Swayze) but unfortunately it was a PP. So I don't have any hope for the other 2 now because their panto finished 2 months ago. Anyone else who wrote to someone via panto got their success back while the person was still in panto.

Im hopless when it comes to nerves. Even when i send out a regular request im always worried ill never get anything back!
I guess in some respects it makes it better when i get it back because its almost like a surprise :lol:
Im very bad when it comes to VV requests i have sent out Album covers ill probably never see again, which is disapointing but hey thats what this hobby is all about you win some you lose some.

I can't help thinking if there is a letter for me sitting on my doormat all day long then I get home and there's no mail. - Gutted :(

I've only got 4 autographs, I'm new to this but I wouldn't call it nerves.

I agree, I never expect to receive anything, even from people that are known to be good repliers.

I'm the same as you, cb1892! :o

Phoebe :D

I've been doing this TTM since 1998, and I send to a lot of people who are known repliers, and I've sent a few long shots too. I do get nervous sometimes, especially if it's someone that I really want. I always worry about the good ol' USPS, and if something is going to get lost.
